LP + 7’ + 4 page booklet insert describing the legacy of the magazine, 500 only pressed. A vinyl only release. “A Giant Has Nowhere To Go: Tongue Master Records Presents Selections From Comes With A Smile (2000-2006)” is a celebratory vinyl-only release drawn from the magazine’s sixteen cover-mounted compilation CDs. Across some 300 tracks, the magazine presented previously unheard tracks from its eclectic array of interviewees drawn from the worlds of the Singer Songwriter, Americana, Post-Rock, Electronica, and all things Indie. Comes With A Smile’s designer/editor Matt Dornan’s association with Tongue Master Records began with the first TM 7″ and has continued to the present day. In some ways the association has come full circle with this curated release. The selections on this album represent the place where the worlds of Tongue Master and Cwas converge. Most remain exclusive to the magazine, and all appear on vinyl for the first time. Side one features artists who appear in the Tongue Master discography – from established masters Mark Eitzel, Mark Mulcahy and Howe Gelb to the equally idiosyncratic stylings of New York’s The Scene Is Now, Athens’ Sigmatropic (featuring Edith Frost) and London’s cinematic The Real Tuesday Weld. The latter revisits a CWAS favourite, featuring a newly recorded vocal by Sephine Llo, exclusive to this release. Other contributions include intimate demos from Eitzel and Gelb (better known in embellished form by American Music Club and Giant Sand respectively), to standalone gems like Mulcahy’s “Elephantine” (which gives this collection its title) and the bruised avant-garde blues of The Scene Is Now’s “The Word”. The tracks on side two and the accompanying 7” are a diverse selection drawn from the sixteen CDs CWAS issued between 2000 and 2006 that reflect and complement the oeuvre of Tongue Master Records. Here you will find the dense literature-infused art-folk of Lullaby For The Working Class, the sparse acoustic balladry of Nina Nastasia and the curious Matmos-enhanced stylings of veteran polymath and fellow New Yorker David Grubbs. In their wake comes an epic jazz-tinged duel between Douglas McCombs’s Brokeback and sometime labelmates Chicago Underground Duo, and the raw gothic Americana of Blanche. The LP concludes with a haunting lo-fi lament by the sorely missed Jason Molina in his Songs: Ohia guise. The 7″ presents two further gems: a concise edit of the lengthy title track from a 2005 12” tour EP from CWAS regulars The American Analog Set, and an acoustic rendition of a track from the album ‘The Great Destroyer’ by shapeshifting veterans Low from the same year. Together the fourteen tracks hint at the breadth of the CWAS archive, a treasure trove from a not-too-distant musical past. With full lyrics, a special four page insert tracing the history of the magazine, and an Alex Wharton Abbey Road cut, this quality release is a testament to the legacy of Comes With A Smile. ‘Probably the best independent music magazine in the world‘ – ESQUIRE Artist Various Artists Genre Rock And Pop Label Tongue Master Buying Options 1LP Includes 7" Format 1LP , Includes 7" Condition New Country UK Track Listings SIDE ONE The Scene Is Now - ‘Words’ (3:10) Howe Gelb - ‘Wolf Pup’ (4:42) Mark Mulcahy - ‘Elephantine’ (4:12) Sigmatropic featuring Edith Frost - ‘Haiku 4 (Alt)’ (2:31) Mark Eitzel - ‘Bought A Book’ (3:36) The Real Tuesday Weld featuring Sephine Lo - ‘Dreaming of You’ (3:47) SIDE TWO Lullaby For The Working Class - ‘In Defense Of Abstractions’ (3:18) Nina Nastasia - ‘I Will Never Marry’ (3:29) David Grubbs- ‘Aging Young Lovers’ (2:53) Brokeback With Chicago Underground Duo- ‘Chomsk, Live!’ (7:08) Blanche -‘Never Again (Demo)’ (3:26) Songs: Ohia - ‘Untitled’ (3:01) 7” - SIDE THREE The American Analog Set - ‘Everything Ends In Spring (Edit)’ (4:41) SIDE FOUR Low - ‘Walk Into The Sea (acoustic version)’ (3:07) Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Various Artists View Product Quick View Various Artists Shanghai’d Soul Episode 12 Soul / Funk | Numero Group | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 28th June 2024 £23.00 - £25.00 Select options Various Artists Shanghai’d Soul Episode 12 £23.00 - £25.00 Genre: Soul / Funk Label: Numero Group Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 28th June 2024 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Various Artists Piano That Rocks Metal / Classic Rock | Earache | 1LP Released 23rd August 2024 £27.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists Piano That Rocks £27.00 Genre: Metal / Classic Rock Label: Earache SKU: MOSH691LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 23rd August 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists The Bristol Post Punk Explosion (1978-1982) Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo | Bristol Archive | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 12th July 2024 £22.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists The Bristol Post Punk Explosion (1978-1982) £22.00 Genre: Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label: Bristol Archive SKU: ARC384V Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 12th July 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists 80’s Pop Stars Collected Rock And Pop | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 2LP Released 28th June 2024 £34.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists 80’s Pop Stars Collected £34.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP3724C Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 28th June 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists Now Playing Disco Soul / Funk | Rhino (Pure) | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 7th June 2024 £30.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists Now Playing Disco £30.00 Genre: Soul / Funk Label: Rhino (Pure) SKU: 0603497825202 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 7th June 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists 60’S Soul Classics Soul / Funk | Spectrum | 2LP Released 21st June 2024 £30.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists 60’S Soul Classics £30.00 Genre: Soul / Funk Label: Spectrum SKU: 5399831 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 21st June 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists Lovely Ugly Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo | Repeat | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 31st May 2024 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists Lovely Ugly £22.00 Genre: Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label: Repeat SKU: MBRR166 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 31st May 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists The Bristol Punk Explosion Vol 2 (1977-1981) Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo | Bristol Archive | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 24th May 2024 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists The Bristol Punk Explosion Vol 2 (1977-1981) £24.00 Genre: Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label: Bristol Archive SKU: ARC383V Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 24th May 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy presents ‘Balearic Breakfast’ Volume 3 Electronica | Heavenly | 2LP Released 7th June 2024 £31.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Various Artists Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy presents ‘Balearic Breakfast’ Volume 3 £31.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Heavenly SKU: HVNLP224 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 7th June 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists Psych!
